How to improve your English skills

My most important advice is to do something (anything), but above all have fun! Make it your hobby, not a chore.

There are many ways to improve your level of English, but only you can find the right way for you. Here are a few tips that might help:

Improve your Learning Skills

Learning is a skill and it can be improved.

Your path to learning effectively is through knowing yourself your capacity to learn processes you have successfully used in the past your interest, and knowledge of what you wish to learn

Motivate yourself

If you are not motivated to learn English you will become frustrated and give up. Ask yourself the following questions, and be honest:-
  • Why do you need to learn/improve English?
  • Where will you need to use English?

LITTLE CANDLE

Little Candle
 
I am indeed not the sun
brightly warms you
not the moon enlightens your night
nor a star beautify your sky

I am a small little candle
burnt, maybe to lead you
by its gloomy light

I can merely stand as a decorator
of your parties
but I can also amuse you
see what a respect its discharge
till the end…
and bring me silence
let me coagulated

Who I am

Who I am



Who I ‘m
I can hear my heart screaming
Any words I know the meaning
Like a blast and my mind burning
Provoke my brain don’t stop thinking
To find the way I’ll running

Fighting struggling
Till the land I’ll laying
Till the space I’ll stop breathing

Who I’m
Like in a battle field I’m walking
But no blood is pouring








UKHTI NISA

“Thanks take care!” I got off Yeni’s motorcycle I rode in to the crossroads where I would get a bus to take me home. “Ok, so also you, Assalamu’alaikum.” Yeni rode away left me alone in the crowd of Pekanbaru noon. The weather became hotter. I thought it might be the effect of the global heating. The sun shines so brightly. In the distance, seemed there was a puddle of water on the road. I had to squint my eyes to dim the glaze light came into my eyes. It was rush hour. Dusts and exhaust fumes shorten my wind.
 
Immediately, I tried to find a place to take shelter while waiting for the bus. My throat felt dry. I bought a glass of jelly drink to reduce my thirst and hunger, fresh.

“Sat…sat…pusat…psat…” yelled the conductor. I step into the bus immediately, and got a seat near the window. I need wind on the way. Moreover, it would be unpleasant when the passengers become crowd. I need the fresh air.

Usually, I went to the campus by motorcycle but it was broken in the morning. Then I had to send it out for repairs and it could not be finished earlier for me to be used. “It doesn’t matter,” I comforted my self. The bus was still lonely. Actually, I don’t like to have trip without any friends. But, I tried enjoying the trip, looking trough the window, counting the rows of colourful shop houses along the way. I rearranged my sit position. Sebenarnya Cinta, the song of Letto band was played, my favourite song. It was enough to entertain me.
